Multi-technology Inspection for Increased Productivity in PPVC Construction

Inspection is required to ensure the structural integrity of PPVC buildings, but inspection is often considered a non-value adding, time-consuming process. This paper illustrates how the use of a multi-technology inspection approach can ensure structural integrity, add value and enhance...

Application Note

Locating grouting defects in prefabricated structures

For Prefabricated, Prefinished Volumetric Construction (PPVC) concrete structures, the final strength depends on checking the quality of the grouting. Discover how to 'see' any voids or delaminations inside the concrete with 2D, 3D and even augmented reality...
